Sister of Chatswood car crash victim says she held her as she took her last breath

The sister of a woman who died after she was hit by a car which mounted the pavement in Chatswood has shared a touching tribute on social media.

Blogger Heather Croxon, 31, died in hospital yesterday after a car crashed onto the footpath and struck her across the road from the Chatswood Chase shopping centre, at 8.30am on February 24.

The vehicle flipped and struck Ms Croxon, who a witness said was only hit because she stopped for coffee. She suffered serious head injuries.

Ms Croxon’s sister, Amanda Andrews, took to Facebook yesterday to share a touching tribute to her lost sibling.

“Unfortunately things don't always work out the way we planned,” she wrote.

“Today I said goodbye to my beautiful big sister who as I held her hand she took her last breath and passed on peacefully.”

Ms Andrews remembered her sister as a fond reader and said she imagines “Heather up there seeing all these famous authors, probably looking like a stunned mullet before she gets up the courage to meet them”, and “her smile when she realises she has the perfect view of Benedict Cumberbatch from up there”.
